[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#849284: insserv: fopen(/etc/insserv.conf): No such file or directory

[積丹尼 Dan Jacobson]

OK I have repeated the process on a new system and here are the logs.

First I installed a minimal system offline, with
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Debian GNU/Linux installer"
DISTRIB_RELEASE="9 (stretch) - installer build 20161212-00:04"
on a USB stick.

Then I went online and installed more and more packages. Here you can
see a birds eye view,

48 matches in 26 lines for "insserv" in buffer: *compilation*
   1216:Selecting previously unselected package insserv.

of what is happening.
We see the problem only occurs between the time insserv has been
unpacked, and when it is finally set up.

After it has been set up, the problem no longer occurs, for many days
afterwards so far.

Here are the logs,
